You guys kill me with your cost complaints. If [$]is gonna be a problem you need to quit diving. You have a $150 pony tank strapped to a $200 tank strapped to a $500 bcd with a $1000 dollar regulator / computer attached. You have at least another $500 worth of necessary gear in a suit, mask, fins, and snorkel. These pony tank mounts are machined out of aluminum which the machine work costs more than the aluminum.Use silicone grease on the pins and it will not hurt if you get it on your bc or wetsuit.You could always make a tank strap out of some pvc pipe, nylon strap, duct tape, and velcro, but hey its your life down there not mine.

I did not use this in the water. I wasn't impressed with its overall design relative to the cost, (its about the most expensive pony bottle mount on the market). The pins are very greasy, I'd rather not have grease all over my BC, tank and gloves every time I dive. The instructions are clear about keeping copious amounts of grease on the pins. I would've kept this if the cost was $69.99 but its double that. I bought a different pony holder on LP for $49.99...looks like it will work equally well. Cant advocate for this mount until they lower the cost.

My wife and I both own one, as well as many others in my dive club. Yes, it's more expensive than others, and that deters people from buying. However, many who started with less expensive straps also bought this after spending money on a cheap alternative, so their cost is actually higher than starting with this one. What is the cost of a lost pony bottle, reg, etc., or a blown dive because you must surface to fix your tank straps. One of our dive club members suffered through eight or ten such dives before tossing the cheap web strapping based holder into the trash and buying this one. No more problems - ever.

The quick connect feature of this setup allows you to very quickly change out main tanks without removing the securing strap on the pony bottle. You pull one pin and rotate the pony bottle out of the bracket, then change out the main tanks as normal.

I have no idea why others seem to believe they need so much grease on the pins. I've never applied grease and have no problem at all inserting or removing the pins. I suspect they're not rotating the pony bottle fully into its place, therefore not lining the holes up properly. My wife had that problem until I showed her how to tell if the bottle strap was fully inserted into the bracket.

I did add a small bungee cord to one of the pins. Although they're attached to each other with the "safety cable", they're not attached to anything else. If you pull both pins, then they're loose. I atached the bungee to the main tank strap and now I don't have to worry about forgetting or losing my pins.

There are two pins that secure the bracket to the tank holder. The two pins are attached to each other with a wire rope so you don't lose them. There is no saftey cable hooked to anything. This is a great setup for a pony tank. You will not be sorry you bought it. Everyone I dive with uses this system.
